This "reverse" shit was made up because most politically correct people believe that only whites can be racists. Which is of course absolute nonsense. It is a term pointing out the fact that it is possible for people in the minority to hate those in the majority. Of course the "reverse" qualifier is not really necessary, it's the same racism no matter who hates whom.

I remember this one time I got downvoted to oblivion for calling out someone on being sexist (she was generalizing something about men.) I'm a woman but more importantly, I'm a human being... and I'm pretty sure it's not possible to generalize non-physical traits of an entire half of our species and have that generalization hold true.

1) have far less opportunity to discriminate against whites than whites have to discriminate against blacks, overall; and 2) black people lack a system of institutionalized support that protect them when they discriminate against whites.

and can be used to to oppose claims of "Reverse Sexism" too.

Huh. In Canada, the only two groups not protected by Human Rights Legislation and hate speech laws are whites and men. The government is allowed to discriminate specifically against men in job postings and in other areas, and the HRC can deny you a hearing if your complaint is based on, say, the fact that you can't get any funding for the men's DV shelter you run.

So you have an institution set up that males it legal to discriminate against whites and men, commit hate speech against whites and men, but it is other groups who "lack a system of institutionalized support that protect them when they discriminate"?

Tim Wise just wrote a great diary on right wing racism. As usual, though, in the comments some folks started claiming that white folks could be the victims of “racism” too. Even though I thought, from Tim’s article, that the impossibility of that was clear, it’s a point that’s very hard to get across.

Even assuming that racism is indeed prejudice plus social power, Wise is wrong. All white people do not have social power across the planet. White people can even be racist towards other white people just as black people can be racist towards other black people.
